Summary of Captain Underpants And The Preposterous Plight Of The Purple Potty People


The pages are p. 1-176 it have forward and ch. 1-32. I like this good book and it an epic novel by Dav Pilkey. If you want to check out this book go to the library and pick it up.

This is George Beard and Harold Hutchins. George is the skeleton on the right with the tie and the flat-top. Harold is the one on the left with the T-shirt and the bad haircut. Remember that now. As you might remember from our last adventure, George and Harold had recently made the horrifying mistake of trying to pass through a synthetic time warp without letting the C-2X906 super-bimflimanatrix drive of their beebleflux-capacitating zossifyer cool down, thus creating a sub-paradoxical, dimensionalistic alternicon-shift, which opened up a hyper-googliphonic screen door into a sub-omnivating ultra-zinticular bio-nanzonoflanamarzipan. To put it in scientific terms, they screwed up. But don't get all freaked out because everybody looks like a skeleton. X-ray beams are a normal by-product of inter-dimensional reality shifting.

George, Harold, and their loyal pets suddenly found themselves wishing that they had never set foot inside the petrifying Purple Potty that was about to send them all on a journey into the hoffifying abyss of the unknown...a journey that would probably spell impending doom for themselves, and would most likely bring about the end of our civilization as we know it. In chapter 2 said It's been said that adults spend the first two years of their children's lives trying to make them walk and talk and the next sixteen years trying to get them to sit down and shut up. It's the same way with potty training: Most adults spend the first few years of a child's life cheerfully discussing pee and poopies, and how important it is to learn to put your pee-pee and poo-poo in the potty like big people do. But once children have mastered the art of toilet training, they are immediately forbidden to ever talk about poop, pee, toilets, and other bathroom-related subjects again. Such things are suddenly considered rude and vulgar, and are no longer rewarded with praise and cookies and juice boxes. One day you're a superstar because you pooped in the toilet like a big boy, and the next day you're sitting in the principal's office because you said the world "poopy" in American History class (which, if you ask me, is the perfect place to say that word). You're probably wondering, "Why would adults do that? Why would they encourage something one day and discourage it the next?"

Long story short the next adventure is Captain Underpants And The Terrifying Return, Of Tippy Tinkletrousers. The author biography said "He has written and illustrated numerous popular, award-winning books for children. The Adventures of Captain Underpants, which has more than three million copies in print, was an American Bookseller Pick of the Lists and a Publishers Weekly "Cuffie" Award winner of the Funniest Book of the Year; Dog Breath was awarded the California Young Reader Medal; The Paperboy was chosen as a Caldecott Honor Book; and his' latest Captain Underpants books were all national bestsellers in their first week of publication. Dav is also the creator of the IRA-CBC Children's Choice Award-winning Dumb Bunnies books and the author of the Ricky Ricotta's Mighty Robot series. He lives with his wife on an island in the Pacific Northwest." In book 8 in September 2006. To go to the website is http://www.pilkey.com and http://www.scholastic.com/captainunderpants/
